“Suriche/Suri god” is richer in nutrients. Also known as pyramid jaggery or Goan jaggery, it is used by Goan Catholics in recipes where jaggery is required.

Jaggery lasts for a long time without refrigerating. Since it is rock solid, gentle tapping with hammer or a sharp knife results in small pieces and powdered jaggery, that can be stored in containers in a dry place.
